In Denmark, the authorities have adopted a new regional approach to travel guides in the countries of the European Union and the Schengen Zone, as well as the United.
The move was reported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark, although it also announced the entry into force on Saturday 12 December of the SchengenVisaInfo.com reports of new guidelines adopted by the country's health authorities.
Despite the new approach, all European Union countries, as well as those in the Schengen zone and Britain, remain extremely dangerous, and all Danish citizens and residents are strongly discouraged from traveling.
"For those countries which provide ECDC with regional test data, it will be possible to open up quarantine countries for travel to low-risk regions. In open countries, travel to high-risk regions can also be discouraged,” the statement reads.
The government of Denmark has called on its citizens not to travel to the following countries to prevent the further spread of the deadly virus because of the high infection rate and travel restrictions placed on Denmark's citizens:
- FINLAND

- About
- 's
- The Netherlands The Netherlands

Nevertheless, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that business travel would be deemed necessary.
The Ministry has also announced that it has adopted a new guideline for general health.
The self-isolation recommendation is amended for a period of 14 days after returning from an orange country or area.' Alternatively, self-isolation for ten days after returning home is suggested. A negative test result made at the earliest on the fourth day after entry into Denmark will break the isolation, the statement highlights.
Both necessary and nonessential travel will be subject to the above-mentioned law. At the same time, the ministry also emphasized that the 14-day compulsory quarantine will be shortened to five days in the future.
In an effort to avoid the spread of the virus, Denmark's health authorities advise their residents to present a negative result of the Coronavirus test upon their arrival.
Business travelers who are permanently resident in Denmark and return to their country from countries deeply impacted by COVID-19 are exempted from the criteria for self-isolation.
According to the declaration, the regions of Agder, Nordland, Møre og Romsdal, Rogaland, Finnmark, Troms and Trøndelag in Norway are deemed to be available for entry. Viken and Oslo, by comparison, are known to be heavily impacted by the pandemic.
At the same time, Schleswig-Holstein, Southern Sweden (Skåne and Blekinge counties) and Western Sweden (Hallands and Västra Götalands counties) will be subject to special rules for the border countries.
Jeppe Kofod, Denmark's Minister of Foreign Affairs, unveiled several measures earlier this month to help business travelers carry out their work abroad.
In November, the Ministry declared that it will open borders with infection rates lower than 30 new cases per 100,000 people per week for passengers coming from EU/Schengen Zone regions and Britain. It was announced that the decision would take effect this month.
According to Worldometers' figures, a total of 109,758 people have contracted the COVID-19 pandemic in Denmark and 941 people have died so far.
